Low End - pickups for a P - bass?

i have a fender squier limited edition P bass... the pickups are giving me a bit of buzz and i would like to get more low end on my bass... are there a set of pick - ups i could get that would give me that low low sound w/out the buzz?

As for the buzz... don't worry 'bout it. A good replacement p-bass pickup are the "Bassline's Quarter Pounder's" they are passive but they are some sweet pups! they are really hot and have a great tone. But then again you have to think about what kind of music you play. And they are not all that pricy!

i have a bartolini pickup in my P-clone. it has a lot more low end than a fender P, but its overall tone is fairly "soft". i guess others might call it warm.

i love it. it's not aggressive at all, but it is really defined in the mids and highs. i don't think it was that expensive, either, but it's been a few years and i don't know what other P replacement pickups cost, so i couldn't say.

I agree that the Quarter Pounder and the Bartolini both have deeper lows than a vintage-voiced P-pup. The EMG also has very deep lows, IME. I personally like the "vintage" sound which has more prominent low-mids and mids, which is probably why I have a Seymour Duncan SPB-1 in my Precision.

I've used Basslines, Armstrong and the original on my '82 P-Bass. I would rank them as such:

1) Original Fender
2) Armstrong
3) Basslines

The P-Bass Basslines just did nothing for me. I like the Armstrong pickup a good bit more than the Basslines and would recommend. However, I honestly think your best bet is to find some old original P-Bass pickups, preferably circa 1970s. The original Fender pickups were hard to beat, as many here will attest.
